It was once one of the most common jobs to earn your living as a maid back in the Victorian era. Perhaps your daughter has landed a maid’s role in Oliver Twist, and needs to step back in time for World Book Day or there’s a special Victorian history lesson she’s taking part in at school.

Well look no further, as this Victorian Maid Fancy Dress Costume gives you exactly what you need. The costume provides a long-sleeved black dress, with both frilled cuffs and rim. It also includes a white apron with a handy little pocket to pop anything extra in that may be needed. Of course, the Victorian Maid look wouldn’t be complete without a ruffled mop white hat, which also comes as part of the outfit.

Stick to the black and white theme and add some white socks, with an extra little ruffle if you so please, and a comfy pair of black shoes. Now your daughter is ready to go into service for the day.

She might even get into character so much that she’ll be keen to help you around the house! Unfortunately, we can provide no such guarantee…
